“First and foremost, Glucophase XR is the only ALA based supplements that I have ever felt any effects from. Here are some things I noticed.
While bulking in December, I added 3 caps of GXR to my supplement regime and lost 3 pounds in 3 weeks while bulking, while increasing my other measurements. I did not change anything except the addition of 3 GXR, which replaced my 600 mg of R-ALA I was already taking. This weight loss included losing 1/2" off of my waist.
I am currently using it while bulking (1 cap pre and 1 cap postworkout). I did not use GXR during my first two workouts. I became very hypoglycemic after drinking my postworkout shake due to the rapid insulin spike. When I started using GXR along with it, I had no problems.
GXR is definitely a potent ALA product, the best I have used to date. I highly recommend it.”

“I use two caps PWO. I find that by the time I get home to the gym, I am craving simple carbs. And quickly. The first couple of times I tried to time the carbs after taking 3 caps to test their potency; the ride home from the gym only got longer. It was then I realized what falling in a slin hole might feel like. It just quietly, muffled everything around me. This is an incredicble product.”

“Wife started taking Glucophase this week, first thing in the am with her ALCAR. She had to discontinue[taking on empty stomach] due to extreme hypo. She takes only w/meals now. She's 5'8" 110 at 11%bf. Shit works.”

“Christ Glucophase XR is powerful! Took 2 tabs with breakfast, thinking I was an ALA/R-ALA veteran and got my socks knocked off.”

“I popped 2 caps with the 3k cal meal. it was a huge roast dinner followed by a good 1000cals worth of spotted dick and custard( a dessert with sponge cake and currants). Chased it down with about 100g chocolates. All in all ~3000calories.
As usual, I looked pretty damn bloated at the time, and for the next few hours. After that though I was amazed. My stomach went back to normal abotu 4hours later. And I looked great the next day, and the 2nd day after(today). Definately worth the cost if its gonna do this every time I gorge.”

“I really like this stuff with PWO drink 2 pills.....you can really feel the heat.”

“The first dose was done prior to breakfast with my coffee and ALCAR. Didn't notice too much of a stimulant upgrade, however I could tell my blood sugar(BS) was taking a dive before I got a chance to eat. I ended up adding a cup of juice to get BS back up. Potent stuff, especially for those of us with lower BS.
After 3 days of use alongside CEE I'm up almost 5 pounds! Yes really. My weight has been very stable at 179 for past several months and diet has not changed markedly. I don't know if it is just the CEE or a combo of the CEE and GXR or perhaps some synergy there. Muscles are much fuller than they were with just the CEE use, that I can say for sure.”

“Each time I trained for 45 min, drinking a mix of glucose, malto, hydro whey, hydro casein, BCAAs throughout my workout. Then ate 1.5 cups oats (dry before cooking) with 40g whey protein 30min after the conclusion of my workout. Labs were taken exactly one hour after this meal, each time. The first set of labs I took 1g Vitamin C, 1800mg NAC with the last of my PWO drink. For the next 4 days I added 1 cap of Glucophase XR to the 1g Vitamin C, and 1800mg NAC, and also one more cap before a carb meal later in the day.
Without Glucophase XR: Glucose 96..
With Glucophase XR: Glucose 54”

“ I'm using Glucophase XR and sesathin right now and really like it.”

“ I had never tried any form of R-ALA before recently starting Glucophase. This is why I think Glucophase XR is worth the money. The cost per mg of R-ALA is almost the same as the cost per mg of K-R-ALA in Glucophase XR. They are only separated by 0.0001 cent per mg. With Glucophase XR, you get K-R-ALA, which is probably better absorbed by your body than R-ALA, and you get a bunch of other ingredients which I am not going to get into(just look at the write-up for Glucophase XR on Bulknutrition). For these reasons, I figured that Glucophase XR was a better deal and decided to go with that over normal R-ALA.“

“I’ve been using Glucophase XR for 24 days now, both as blood sugar regulator and a nutrient shuttler. It's a powerful product, with 1 cap pre-cardio in the AM and another before dinner, I can tell my glucose level is low from the body fat I'm dropping faster than usual on a Keto diet, and that 2 caps will make me feel a little weak and shaky. I have to drink some OJ to bring up my level. The Nutrient shuttle effect is also there, in that I get a substantial pump when taken before a high protein mix. My goal has been to minimize carb and maximize Protein uptake, as a lean mass builder/fat reducer. So far, very good. There is definitely more than just a R-ala effect at work here. It's much stronger than the R-ala alone that I've used before.”

“I got my glucophase in the mail the other day and tried it out. The directions say to take a half-hour before food or post-workout drink, but of course I decided to take it and not eat anything.
Within one hour I started to feel much more awake, then a little shaky, then the carb cravings started and I ended up binging on fried rice and orange juice.
Subsequently, I used it along with my post-workout shake, and didn't suffer any of the effects from the first trial.
There's definitely something to this stuff. Much more than I ever felt with R-ALA by itself.
I think the glucose-lowering/insulin-sensitizing effects of this supplement could be very beneficial long-term, not only for minimizing fat gain and increasing glucose disposal into muscle, but also as a nootropic for brain health.”

“And so far these pills give me a real kick in the pants like Meforma (real Glucopage) did. So I take it a night with my last meal and in the morning to kick start the day.”

“Have you guys tried Glucophase XR from designer supps? It's the best R-ala type product I have even tried. Check it out.”

“And adding ALA, R-ALA, Potassium-R-ALA, or Glucophase XR (in order from my least recommended to most) with your Acetyl-L-Carnitine would definitely be an asset on a cutting phase. ALA and ALCAR work together to work some nice fat-loss voodoo.”

“I just got a hold of some Designer Supp's Glucophase XR and I've only been taking it for two days, but I am thinking this is the Shiznit. I'm a CKD'er and it's an absolute essential that I've been missing out on because I'd already been using ALA and couldn't justify spending more money for an ALA product.”

“Glucophase XR is the best thing for a keto diet”
- TheReporter - [Link to Source]
“I've been using it for 3 weeks… I've lost about 6 lbs so far, some fat some water. Strength is up, probably because GXR is allowing me to eat a high to moderate carb diet and lose BF at the same time. Noticing a pump very similiar to my anarchy stack experience. Improved definition in the abs.
I've never used straight up k-r-ala only r-ala (while on the anarchy stack) so I can't tell you GXR is any better than k-r-ala. But it beats the hell out of r-ala”

“I really like Glucophase XR. I think I will keep buying it as long as I can afford it. I take it about 30 min . prior to the finish of my workout. Then after I finish I have my CEE. And then my PWO shake when i get home, about 30 min later.”

“Now we have K-R-ALA, which I have just started using in the form of Glucophase XR, and I admit that for the first time in my life I actually am not feeling the carb roller-coaster effect (energy, then crashing).”

“Glucophase XR is a great product, a very strong anti-oxidant, and for those that struggle to maintain the perfect diet it will help with ketosis.”
